Sliding barn doors have made a huge resurgence in Charlotte home fashion. In fact, barn doors are been one of the most popular home decor trends of this past year. Perhaps sliding barn doors have come back in a big way due to their versatility – they can go nearly anywhere in your space!

Barn Doors in Master Bathrooms

Using a sliding barn door as the barrier between the master bedroom and bathroom is a fantastic way. Not only does it make the bathroom look much more stylish, but it lets you make use of space in ways that other doors can’t. When you open a standard door, it occupies space in either the bathroom or the bedroom that leads to it – barn doors stay flush against the wall and give you plenty of space.

Barn Doors as Closet Doors

Like with bathroom doors, sliding barn doors let you have tons of extra space when used as a closet door. That makes them a great choice for a closet in a common area like a hallway or the foyer. In addition, these closets are the perfect spot to put barn doors, because they’re usually in rooms where you’ll have guests so you can show the barn door’s looks.

Barn Doors as Room Dividers

Who says barn doors always have to go where doors go? Big sliding barn doors can help divide a room into smaller spaces to create a little more intimate mood in your Charlotte home.

Barn Doors as a Modern Door Replacement

In Charlotte condos or apartments, sliding barn doors are being used more as these spaces embrace modern interior fashion. With a sliding barn door in your condo, your space feels less confined and segmented. In their own small way, barn doors let you get the best of both worlds of a house and an apartment.

Barn Doors as a Window Treatment

We usually just call these kind of barn doors “barn door shutters,” but they don’t have much in common with interior plantation shutters. But they are similar to shutters in that they have a timeless style, and they can block a great deal of light to make your home cool and comfy.

Barn Doors Framing an Entertainment Center

This is actually one of the most unique ways we’ve seen barn doors used. Barn doors can work as both a frame and cover to a tv on your wall. This lets you not only create a frame for the TV (just like a letterbox feature), but you can also cover the TV when you’re not using it to give your space a bit more rustic charm.

Home Office Barn Doors

Sliding doors are a distinct blend of fun design, stunning looks, and practicality, so they’re great in a Charlotte home office. We even offer barn doors with built-in mirrors, or with dry-erase boards for scrawling down notes or planning.

Don’t forget, just because that’s where you work doesn’t mean your home office has to be plain.

Barn Doors in Charlotte Commercial Spaces

All right, so this isn’t a spot in the home, but it’s on this list because barn doors are fantastic in commercial spaces. Dividing off parts of an office or restaurant, or as a wall between a lobby and conference rooms – classic barn doors exemplify the rustic chic trend that’s huge in commercial spaces.
